FAQs

How do I know if my Shelbyville home needs a full roof replacement instead of minor repairs?

Several warning signs point to the need for a full replacement: shingles that are curling, cupping, or missing in multiple areas; widespread granule loss that leaves bald patches; chronic leaks or water stains inside; sagging roof decking; and roofs that are 20–25 years old or older. Because Shelbyville experiences severe summer heat, spring storms, and occasional hail, roofs often degrade faster than the national average. Our inspectors perform a free, no-obligation assessment, document damage with photos, and explain whether targeted repairs or a full replacement is the most cost-effective option.

What roofing materials are most popular in Shelbyville and how do they compare in cost and lifespan?

The three most common options are: • Architectural asphalt shingles – Installed on around 70 % of local homes. Cost-effective, wind-rated to 130 mph, and carry 25–30-year manufacturer warranties. • Standing-seam metal – Gaining popularity for its 50-year life expectancy, energy efficiency, and resistance to hail dents. Up-front cost is roughly 2–3× asphalt but pays back in durability and lower cooling bills. • Premium impact-resistant shingles – Designed for hail zones like central Kentucky/Tennessee. Cost is about 25 % higher than standard architectural shingles and may qualify for insurance discounts. Our consultants provide side-by-side estimates so you can see initial price, long-term value, and warranty details before deciding.

How long will a full roof and gutter replacement take from start to finish?

Most single-family homes in Shelbyville are completed in one to two working days for the roof and half a day for seamless gutter installation, weather permitting. The overall timeline is: 1. Initial inspection & estimate: same day. 2. Material selection & contract: 1–3 days depending on your schedule. 3. Permit processing with the city/county codes office: 1–2 business days (we handle all paperwork). 4. Material delivery & job start: typically within one week of contract signing. 5. Tear-off, decking repairs, underlayment, shingle/metal installation: 1–2 days. 6. New 5" or 6" aluminum gutters and downspouts: installed immediately after roofing. 7. Final cleanup, magnetic nail sweep, and city inspection: same day as completion. Extreme weather or custom material orders can extend the timeframe, but we keep you informed with daily progress texts or emails.

Will replacing my roof and gutters affect my homeowners insurance or property value?

Yes. A new, code-compliant roof lowers the risk profile for insurers, often translating into premium savings—especially if you choose impact-rated shingles or metal. Most carriers in Shelby County require proof of completion and the manufacturer’s warranty; we supply both. From a real-estate standpoint, a new roof has one of the highest returns on investment (60–70 % nationally) and is one of the first items appraisers note when valuing a property. Updated gutters also prevent foundation and siding damage, further protecting your home’s market value.

Do I need permits for a roof or gutter replacement in Shelbyville, and who arranges inspections?

Yes. Shelbyville and Shelby County building codes require a residential re-roof permit any time more than one square of shingles is removed and replaced. Gutters alone usually don’t require a permit, but when installed in conjunction with a roof project, they are included on the same permit. We handle: • Filing the permit application and paying the associated fees • Scheduling mid-roof and/or final inspections with the city/county inspector • Providing documentation and photos for your records or insurance company You don’t have to be home for inspections, but we keep you updated on all scheduled visits.

What maintenance is required after my new roof and gutters are installed to keep the warranty valid?

Manufacturer warranties typically require the roof to be kept free of debris, algae, and overhanging limbs, and gutters must remain unobstructed so water can drain properly. To protect your investment: • Have the roof visually inspected every 2–3 years or after major storms (we offer free post-storm checkups). • Clean gutters twice a year—more often if you have heavy tree cover—or ask about gutter guards we can add during installation. • Avoid power-washing shingles; use manufacturer-approved cleaning solutions if algae appears. • Document any third-party repairs or modifications; unapproved penetrations (satellite dishes, HVAC line sets) can void warranties. Following these simple steps ensures your 25- to 50-year roofing warranty and our 5-year workmanship guarantee remain in full effect.
